We better fight fire with fire or the USA will be a fascist police state and a client puppet of Putin's Russia.
I hope it's not too late already.

And this is what has to be done to all the Republican Congresscritters. They need to be followed and shouted down at every turn.
They should be made to feel as miserable as the pResident does trapped in the White House.

When they see crowds of seriously pissed off voters at their meetings, it is stunning!

Great stuff in there about how to affect your Congresscritter, and so far, it looks like it's working in many districts. If the Repub reps are afraid to go to town halls or talk to their constituents, it's working.
Hopefully, this gets converted into votes in upcoming elections.

(6,253 posts)in the Tri-State area of western West Virginia, southern Ohio and eastern Kentucky. We had an organizing meeting one week ago. About 120 people showed. And we now have nearly 900 on the main Facebook page, with subgroups for various issues, folks assigned to track our Members of Congress, and plans for attending various public events.
One week! Think what we can do in a month, a year! Think what you can do in your area!
